Shen Congran looked at the mother and son, and laughed helplessly.
Shi Yao looked around the room, and at the same time holding onto the small hands of the ball, he glanced helplessly at Shen Congran who was beside him.
"Didn't you get someone to take care of you here?"
"I'm not young anymore, isn't it the same if there's someone to take care of me?" Shen Congran took the luggage from Shi Yao's hands: "If you really think living here by myself is too pitiful, then you should just stay here and take care of my living arrangements. As for the rent, what about it?
Shi Yao suddenly laughed when she heard Shen Congran's words.
After all, if Shen Congran had not been by her side watching over his all these years, how could she possibly have lived a peaceful life abroad? Although there were still people who would watch Shi Yao and her children being bullied, Shi Yao had never seen anything so extreme that there was even a shooting case happening on the neighboring street.
The place Shi Yao was hiding at looked to be a peaceful and harmonious state of affairs. If she had not experienced such a serious situation twice, Shi Yao would probably have thought that this world was just like this, whether it be black or white.
"How is it? "You haven't answered me yet. Do you want to refuse, or do you want to agree with me?" Shen Congran made a sound of acknowledgement afterwards, the voice was low and deep, but now it sounded extremely alluring.
Shi Yao nodded her head: "Of course, even if it's just the room fees, I also feel that managing food and clothing is not such a difficult problem. I have already taken care of the group for a few years, if they needed to be taken care of, why would you be missing?"
"That's what you said. Don't tell me that the boss is being too harsh on you."
"Alright, I'll go to the kitchen and cook first. I haven't eaten for so long, I think you're probably hungry too."
Shen Congran nodded. Looking at Shi Yao's back figure, she even had a selfish thought, and did not want to return Shi Yao to Mo Jintu. Like now, she kept circling around him like this.
But all of a sudden, his clear mind told him that no matter how good Shi Yao was, from the very beginning, the two of them were destined to be two long lines that could intersect but could not intersect.
Shen Congran sat on the sofa and climbed onto the sofa like a ball. Looking at Shen Congran, he poked his shoulder a few times with his little hands.
Shen Congran regained his senses, seeing the strange look on the ball of hair, he could not help but laugh, his hand gently pinching the ball of cheeks.
"Kid, what are you doing?"
"Uncle Shen, do you like my mother? I feel that the way you look at her is different."
Looking at the little fellow in front of him, Shen Congran was glad that he did not drink water. Otherwise, he would have definitely been punctured by this, spitting out a mouthful of water, causing his current answer to become even more obvious.
The little clump of tiger teeth became even cuter as the corners of his mouth widened into a smile. He held Shen Congran's wrist, and lowered his voice near Shen Congran's ear.
"Uncle Shen, I think you're a good person, but don't even think about it. After all, Mom seems to like Daddy more."
Shen Congran took a deep breath, raised his hand and lightly knocked on the cluster of heads: "Don't worry, I only treated your mother like my own sister. In the future, if you're really worried, just call me Uncle."
"No, this way you'll be daddy's brother-in-law in the future, no, okay." He shook his head, looking like a lovely rattle.
The smile on Shen Congran's face slowly disappeared as he looked at the group.
When he mentioned Mo Jintu, Shen Congran realized in a daze that these blessings did not belong to him, but these two people would definitely return it to him one day.
Shen Congran took a deep breath, and thought that if he had been more tenacious back then, would it have been a different story? Now, the woman who was busy working in the kitchen might have become his wife?
In the kitchen, Shi Yao called for the meal to start, Shen Congran carried the group of people and walked towards the dining table, the group of people still had some good words to say to Shen Congran, and when he said these words, even Shen Congran himself did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"What were you two talking about just now that made you so excited? If you don't mind, can you tell me?" Shi Yao put down the last dish.
"They talked about some matters regarding Mo Jintu. Speaking of which, it's because the child misses his father. I can understand that."
Hearing the three words "Mo Jintu," Shi Yao was slightly startled, she glanced at the ball of people beside him, and could understand what the ball of people was feeling at this moment.
had never seen his biological father in three years, so he had learnt about Mo Jintu from his words, but now was not the best time to meet him. Shi Yao knew that Mo Jintu had been colluding with Fang Junting for the past few days.
Fang Junting's personality made people feel that it was extremely extreme, and even Shi Yao couldn't help but feel a chill when she thought about how Fang Junting had sent him in front of Shen Qingqing. Shi Yao looked at Shen Congran with her head lowered, not saying a word, and couldn't help but blame herself for leaving that time.
With regards to everything that had happened, Shi Yao could not shake off all of her responsibilities.
Now that something had happened, it was not something that could be decided with just a few words.
"I'll go see Qing Qing first tomorrow. I wonder how she's doing now. Do you think that if she sees me, she'll find me hypocritical and annoying?"
"I won't."
Hearing Shen Congran's words, Shi Yao nodded her head in relief, but she still did not know what happened afterwards.
After all, Shen Qingqing had already been imprisoned. Even though they still had a good relationship in the prison and would be able to leave that sunless place in around two years, for Shen Qingqing, it still felt like a long time.
There were three dishes and one soup on the table. Shen Congran continuously praised his cooking.
Shen Congran looked at Shi Yao's profile and suddenly realized that in the past three years, Shi Yao had not only become a proper mother, she also looked more and more like a woman.
Shen Congran lit a cigarette on the table, Shi Yao tapped the table.
"The ball is still here, so you can't smoke. The child will learn to be bad."
Shen Congran was slightly taken aback, then laughed and extinguished the cigarette in his hand: "It was my negligence, I did not consider that I was just a child."
"Is there something wrong? If so, it wouldn't hurt to share it with me."
"It's nothing big, just that when we were together in the past, things had changed. Tang Ziying's mind has not recovered yet, and by the way, Tang Ziting has just gotten married. She's just a small white-collar worker from a company, so the climate won't change much."
Shi Yao did not speak, and began to feel that everything in front of him had changed much faster than she had imagined. Shi Yao lowered her gaze, and glanced at her own palm;
If it wasn't for Tang Ziying, if it wasn't for all that messing things up, everything wouldn't have developed to this state.
"Actually, if Mo Jintu had not gone to scrap it at that time, then everything would have been over."
When Shen Congran heard this sentence, he did not say anything.
Shi Yao could only smile, and understood that everything had already become a foregone conclusion. Who would continue to talk about the future, was everything related to the future really important? He asked himself, thinking about everything that had happened in the past, now that she thought about it, it didn't mean anything at all.
After dinner, Hen Congran took the initiative to ask for help with the dishes, but Shi Yao did not reject. She smiled gently on the phone, and just that one moment, made Shen Congran unable to shift his gaze away.
Compared to the previous Shi Yao, the Shi Yao standing in front of him now had an even more feminine quality.
Shi Yao sat on the sofa, hugged a ball in her arms and watched the cartoon show on the television.
"When are you going to give the group a new name? After all, I've already contacted the kindergarten. If it's still called Mo, it's easy for the students to tease me."
Shi Yao lowered her head to look at the ball, and gently said: "Don't worry, ball, will your name be mocked by your classmates? Uncle Shen and I will help you think of a new name now.
"It's good to be called Mo Danzi now." Mo Danzi stared blankly at the television set, his childish voice coming out carelessly from his throat.
Shen Congran nodded his head: "Since it's like this, then I will bring my group to register as soon as possible! "Going to kindergarten earlier and getting along with the kids earlier would not be a bad thing for the group."
Shi Yao made a sound, but she was still worried in her heart. Whether there would be any accidents later on, or whether there would be a group of people that would be left behind after having to leave Mo Jintu's side. If it wasn't for the group being always by his side, she wouldn't even know what to do.
But she had to let go, Shi Yao told herself as she turned to look at Shen Congran and muttered.
"Then I'll go to the company tomorrow to familiarize myself with the company's operations. I guess I'll have to leave the group matter to you, right?"
"Alright, when I send you to the company, I'll send you to see where you can go to school in the future. But for the company, I still hope that you can avoid Mo Jintu as much as possible."
"I got it, I can't let Fang Junting find me, don't worry! I won't cause you any trouble. "
Shi Yao laughed and picked up the ball, saying that she was going to bring it back to her room to sleep.
Shen Congran turned his head and unwillingly looked at Shi Yao's back, bitterly smiling as he lowered his head. In his heart, he was constantly warning himself that he shouldn't have any thoughts towards Shi Yao, and in the end, even Shen Congran himself couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The pressure on his shoulder was more intense than he had thought. His phone suddenly rang.
Shen Congran swiped the screen, and on the other side of the phone, the secretary's voice rang again: "Chief Shen, our business was once again snatched away by the Mo family."
